It's that time of the year, when the Met Gala plays host to hundreds of celebrities. This year's event was attended by the likes of Lady Gaga, who was a host at the event, Bodyguard actor Richard Madden, and tennis champion and host, Serena Williams, who wore a Versace dress with Nike trainers!

Each year, the major event has a theme, and this year's theme was Camp: Notes on Fashion, inspired by Susan Sontag's 1964 essay Notes on Camp. This theme saw celebrities with big, bold and brash outfits, with Lady Gaga having multiple outfits on the red carpet alone.

The 'Born This Way' singer's looks included a voluminous, fuchsia gown for arrival on the red carpet, which she was then helped out of, to reveal a black strapless gown. Then, it wasn't long before this was removed to reveal another, fuchsia column gown underneath. Wow! However, that wasn't it, take a look through our gallery for all of Lady Gaga's looks and more.
